SITUATION REPORT
Football is doing that zen thing where Collin Klein's debut against a cupcake has everyone genuinely excited without manufactured panic—depth charts are being graded, QB questions are polite, and the only chaos is a study nobody's reading. Meanwhile, basketball is also crushing it in recruiting with top prospects checking out the program, which means Chris Klieman's blueprint is humming on both sides and K-State fans are allowed to exist without spiraling for exactly one more week.

“One of those guys we never remember until they screw up! I hope for a blissful season for him.”

“Serious Stinyard is an A+ name for a football player. Optimistic about this group, but no DBs hold up without pressure upfront, and there are lots of questions there.”

“That's honestly what has me really excited for this year, not just for K-State but for the Big 12 as a whole. I bet it's another one of those seasons where there are 6+ teams left in the mix for the Big 12 title as late as week 11. I agree with you, I could see the team just barely getting a bowl, but I could also see a 10 win season if I wear the right shade of purple tinted glasses”

“Looking at this season schedule, I'm ever more optimistic. Need to go 3-0 at home to start - that Tulane loss in 2022 remains inexcusable, even if it setup that amazing win at the dirt burglars. What's weird is that I have no idea who's going to be good or not. Goddamned portal. I hope CU sucks, but TCU? ASU? Cincy losing that douche nugget gambler? I don't even know if they'll manage to piss down their leg at ISU like they have repeatedly with new coaches for both teams. Fascinating. Could be 6”

“Yeah, I tend to agree with Drew's analysis on this matter. Bates will probably rotate between DE and 3-tech depending on the passing situation. But he should get a large amount of the reps between the 4 positions this season, I would think.”

“hahaha. I think I'm referring to the '23 season? But yes, lots of injuries for years at LB.”
